Eugene, Oregon newborn photographer: Welcome Braylon!



I can’t wait for all of you to meet Braylon! Are you wondering why? Just take a look at his photos and you’ll see that all explanations are unnecessary.

Kara and Eddie brought their sweet little boy in to my photography studio in Eugene, Oregon near the end of October for his newborn photography session and I had a blast taking pictures of him! He was such a good baby, super photogenic—and that hair! Need I say more?

I’m going to say more anyway, because I just can’t stop myself. I totally loved this little guy’s hair and I think it may be the best newborn hair I’ve gotten so far! It was amazingly soft and fluffy—like baby duck down. I always love it when brand new babies have a full head of dark hair, but Braylon takes it to a whole ‘nother level. He does the afro look incredibly well, don’t you think?

Blue and gray was the theme for Braylon’s session, a color scheme that’s as laid back as Braylon himself, and allows him to completely steal the show. We stayed pretty basic with props, although Braylon’s mom and dad brought along a personalized swaddling blanket and stripy nightcap for me to use, which was awesome! Such a cute idea to have baby’s name monogrammed on some of his hats, bibs, or blankets. Plus there’s the practical element: There’s no chance of mixing Braylon’s baby pictures up with those of any future brothers and sisters. The label makes it clear that all this cuteness belongs to Braylon alone.

Braylon was super sleepy during the first part of his newborn photography session, but then woke up for a snack near the end. I guess with all that picture-taking he worked up an appetite. We got him fed, and then I expected him to fall back to sleep since that’s what newborns usually do when they’ve got a nice full tummy. Braylon didn’t want to miss out anything though, and since he was calm and happy I decided to just go with it and see what happened. He was very easy-going and I got several adorable photos with him wide awake and checking out the world. I’ll sometimes manage to get one or two shots when baby’s eyes are open, but it’s rare to get such a high number of photos like that with very young infants. It was definitely a treat for me to work with such an alert and curious little one!

I had such a fun time being the newborn photographer for Braylon and his family. It was a lucky day for me when I got to welcome that much cuteness to my studio! I must be living right or something. This newborn photography session was the perfect way to wrap up the month of October at my studio, and I wish little Braylon and his family lots of love and laughter as they celebrate the holidays together and prepare for an amazing new year.
